How often do families with children travel?
Today, family travel isn't just a luxury. With airfare becoming more accessible and child-friendly, and parents able to work remotely, it has become a common practice for most families to travel at least twice a year. Parents acknowledge that travelling teaches their children to embrace other cultures, languages, and make new friends.

What are the main challenges parents see in planning a holiday trip with children?
.webp)
Travelling with kids isn't always smooth sailing. Parents often worry about keeping their little ones entertained, especially during long journeys. Disrupted routines, child's short attention span and mood swings can make parents anxious. Balancing keeping children busy and having pleasure for parents themselves is tough, but families still see travel as valuable.

Language games are a great way to keep your child occupied, for example, the classic memory game, which is available on the Novakid platform.
The whole family can learn new words while having fun and making good use of the travel time.
What is important when choosing a travel destination with kids?
Parents need to consider many factors to ensure a memorable family experience. Availability of child-friendly activities at the chosen destination is key - museums, parks, zoos, playgrounds, pools and beaches help keep a child entertained and engaged. Safety and convenience are other crucial factors - parents prefer destinations that are secure and safe, easy to navigate, offer healthy amenities and safe food options.
Do parents involve their children in planning a holiday?

As family travel requires a lot of preparation, giving children tasks to do, such as packing their suitcase (under supervision, of course!) can be both beneficial and fun. Parents agree that even when the decision rests on their shoulders, offering a child the choice of hotel options or activities they would like to do increases their excitement about the upcoming vacation.
How stressful is travelling with children?
.webp)
Travelling with children, particularly when there are several of them, can be a daunting task. With the unpredictability of children's behaviour and their varying needs based on age, the stress levels can potentially skyrocket. Yet, only a quarter of the parents interviewed found travelling with children challenging. The majority of parents consider this challenge not only manageable but also pleasant.
The best travel destinations according to children
The majority of children dream of visiting countries in Europe and Disneyland (obviously!). Dream destinations are often linked to a child's interests, and by realising their desires, families create memories that will last a lifetime. Introducing a child to new environments and cultures fosters acceptance and curiosity, as well as inspires them to learn new languages.

Opportunities to travel carry great educational value, especially travelling abroad as children can practise a foreign language. Novakid was designed with the flexibility and convenience in mind to allow families with kids to continue learning throughout their holidays from any location. All they need is a computer with internet access to participate in engaging lessons led by experienced, native-speaker teachers.
